Sinossi

In The Lottery, Shirley Jackson masterfully unravels a chilling story that delves deep into the heart of human nature and societal tradition. Set in a small, seemingly peaceful village, the story begins with the townspeople gathering for their annual lottery, an event that has been held for as long as anyone can remember. What starts as a familiar and festive gathering quickly descends into a horrifying ritual, where the "winner" of the lottery faces an unimaginable fate. 
Through her haunting narrative, Jackson explores themes of conformity, violence, and the dark side of tradition. The story's unsettling twist forces readers to confront the frightening ease with which people can accept cruelty when it is sanctioned by society. 
The Lottery remains one of the most provocative and thought-provoking stories in American literature, continuing to captivate and disturb readers decades after its initial publication. 
In this audiobook, narrated by Victoria Emmeline Haverford, Jackson’s unforgettable characters and tense atmosphere are brought to life, pulling listeners into a story where the line between civility and brutality is disturbingly thin.
